Working Time and Workers' Preferences in Industrialized Countries

Working Time and Workers' Preferences in Industrialized Countries

Taylor & Francis

As we enter the new century, a common goal has emerged: the removal or liberalization of restrictions on unsocial hours and the variation of working hours. This book draws together an international team to examine the process. > \nThe gradual reduction in weekly working hours in the first half of the last century, which culminated in the widespread adoption of the 'standard' working week by the 1960s, was grounded in a concern for health and safety and for the preservation of time outside of paid labour.
